AGM

Our group´s AGM will take place on Tuesday 10th September at 7pm at our Scout Hut – timed to fit neatly between Beaver and Scout meetings and should last no longer than 30mins. (During the meeting, our Beavers and Scouts will be able to enjoy shared, supervised games on the field).

At our AGM, we will be able to discuss the health of our group and plan priorities for the year ahead. We will also be looking to elect the officers for the coming year and there are some key roles we are required to fill:

Chair: to chair exec meetings and work with all members to develop scouting within the community.

Treasurer: David Hunter has kindly agreed to continue as our Treasurer.

Secretary: after being in role since 2017, Gwen Sewart will be stepping down as our Secretary and we will be seeking to elect a new secretary.

We will also be looking for some additional help in the areas of fundraising, maintenance and around the many responsibilities shouldered by our Quartermaster. Any new help - whether large or small - will be much welcome and will help carry our group forward, allowing us to deliver the best possible experience for our young people, your children.

We do hope that as many of you as possible - our family representatives of our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts - are able to attend.

If you would like to stand for one of the executive posts (or would like further information) please do get in contact with either CPhilip Wragg (Chair) (via email [email protected]) or one of the section leaders. We look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible.

Your support will be gratefully appreciated.

Events

We are a charity which organises events throughout the year to raise money for our group to spend on repairs, equipment and such like. To see what events and activities are happening, where and when take a look at the events calendar.

Our next group event is our Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on Tuesday 10th September. Please come along and support us. See above for details.

Facebook

Our Facebook site The group now has a Facebook page that has been set up as a closed group so only members of the group will be able to access it. We will put reminders of events and useful information on it but the bulk of information will stay on the web site (www.firstwokingham.org.uk) .
If you would like to access the Facebook page then please email [email protected] and we will arrange for an invite to be sent to you.
